Leroy! Ya gotta be CAREFUL, buddy! Now that the horse is out of the barn...here's the "secret": 1) disconnect wires 2) press the retaining clip back with a small screwdriver. 3) hold the clip out of the way just enough so that the switch body can move past it. 4) CAREFULLY rotate the switch on the plastic pin . 5) slide the switch off the pin.
